You spoilers ahead!
You fans, listen up! The highly anticipated first trailer for season four of the hit Netflix show is finally here.
With the fourth instalment just around the corner, the new trailer looks juicy, and by the looks of it, Joe Goldberg (played by Penn Badgley) may not be the only killer in town! We all know so far that Joe escapes to London after killing his wife Love and assumes a new identity as professor Jonathan Moore, but he won't be getting the peace and calm he so wishes for. In fact, when he falls in with a new group of “insane, privileged, damaged” people, as he puts it, his murderous desires come back to haunt him as he hunts for a rival killer running riot.
“Heartbreak is always a catalyst for a new path,” Netflix captions the trailer.
Where can I watch the trailer for season four of You?
Below!
Call us all kinds of intrigued.
What happened in season three of You?
The official synopsis for season three read: “Joe and Love, now married and raising their baby, have moved to the balmy Northern California enclave of Madre Linda, where they’re surrounded by privileged tech entrepreneurs, judgmental mommy bloggers, and Insta-famous biohackers.
“Joe is committed to his new role as a husband and dad but fears Love’s lethal impulsiveness. And then there’s his heart. Could the woman he’s been searching for all this time live right next door? Breaking out of a cage in a basement is one thing. But the prison of a picture-perfect marriage to a woman who’s wise to your tricks? Well, that’ll prove a much more complicated escape.”
Season three closed with Joe killing Love, setting fire to their home in Madre Linda, and leaving baby Henry with his co-worker Dante. Joe then flees to Europe.
When will You season 4 air?
According to You's Twitter account, part one of season 4 premieres on 10 February and part two on 10 March.
Who will be in You season 4?
As predicted, Penn Badgley is back to play the ever-creepy Joe. He will be joined by Charlotte Ritchie, Ed Speleers, Tilly Keeper, Amy-Leigh Hickman, Niccy Lin, Aidan Cheng, Brad Alexander, Ozioma Whenu, and Eve Austin. Tati Gabrielle will also return.
It's also been revealed that Euphoria and The White Lotus star Lukas Gage will appear in the series as a regular character named Adam, who is a wealthy expat American ‘hiding a trove of secrets’.
What else can we expect from the fourth season?
We freaked out when BTS pics started dropping last summer, with Joe seen in a romantic clinch with someone who ISN'T LOVE.
In the photo, he's kissing a new character named Kate, played by Call The Midwife star Charlotte Ritchie. Back in March, Deadline reported that she had joined the cast as ‘smart, independent, suspicious’ art gallery director Kate, who is majorly distrustful of Penn Badgley's Joe. Ooh.
You's showrunner, Sera Gamble, also shared the below photo, showing Penn Badgley behind the camera:

Sera has also spoken about her excitement for the fourth season. “Reading Caroline’s novel, Greg and I were instantly obsessed with Joe Goldberg and his twisted world view,” she said in a statement (via Variety). “And it’s been thrilling to watch Penn bring Joe to creepy-yet-compelling life.
“We’re deeply grateful that Netflix has shown You such monumental support, and that people around the world have enjoyed watching Joe really get it all very wrong over the past three seasons. The whole You team is excited to explore new, dark facets of love in season four.
Fans have also got a theory that Ellie (played by Jenna Ortega) from season two could also make an appearance in season four of You. The theory is that Joe and Ellie will bump into each other in Paris, which is where Joe seemed to be heading at the end of season three and where Ellie could potentially be in culinary school?!
If you cast your mind back to season two, Love tells Ellie that she should go to culinary school in Paris. Could it be too much of a coincidence? Well, Jenna recently told Cosmopolitan that she's up for reprising her role, saying, “I love that [You] set […] The team behind it, the writers are so witty and so funny, and then also just to work with Penn Badgley again. I had such an incredible time there that if they would like to have me back, I’m more than happy to take a few digs at Joe again.”
